Federated learning (FL) is a distributed model for deep learning that integrates client-server architecture, edge computing, and real-time intelligence. FL has the capability of revolutionizing machine learning (ML) but lacks in the practicality of implementation due to technological limitations, communication overhead, non-IID (independent and identically distributed) data, and privacy concerns. Training a ML model over heterogeneous non-IID data highly degrades the convergence rate and performance. The existing traditional and clustered FL algorithms exhibit two main limitations, including inefficient client training and static hyper-parameter utilization. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel hybrid algorithm, namely genetic clustered FL (Genetic CFL), that clusters edge devices based on the training hyper-parameters and genetically modifies the parameters cluster-wise. Then, we introduce an algorithm that drastically increases the individual cluster accuracy by integrating the density-based clustering and genetic hyper-parameter optimization. The results are bench-marked using MNIST handwritten digit dataset and the CIFAR-10 dataset. The proposed genetic CFL shows significant improvements and works well with realistic cases of non-IID and ambiguous data.

Hyperparameter optimization is a challenging problem in developing deep neural networks. Decision of transfer layers and trainable layers is a major task for design of the transfer convolutional neural networks (CNN). Conventional transfer CNN models
are usually manually designed based on intuition. In this paper, a genetic algorithm is applied to select trainable layers of the transfer model. The filter criterion is constructed by accuracy and the counts of the trainable layers. The results show that the method is competent in this task. The system will converge with a precision of 97% in the classification of Cats and Dogs datasets, in no more than 15 generations. Moreover, backward inference according the results of the genetic algorithm shows that our method can capture the gradient features in network layers, which plays a part on understanding of the transfer AI models.
Federated learning (FL) is an emerging distributed machine learning paradigm that protects privacy and tackles the problem of isolated data islands. At present, there are two main communication strategies of FL: synchronous FL and asynchronous FL. Th
e advantages of synchronous FL are that the model has high precision and fast convergence speed. However, this synchronous communication strategy has the risk that the central server waits too long for the devices, namely, the straggler effect which has a negative impact on some time-critical applications. Asynchronous FL has a natural advantage in mitigating the straggler effect, but there are threats of model quality degradation and server crash. Therefore, we combine the advantages of these two strategies to propose a clustered semi-asynchronous federated learning (CSAFL) framework. We evaluate CSAFL based on four imbalanced federated datasets in a non-IID setting and compare CSAFL to the baseline methods. The experimental results show that CSAFL significantly improves test accuracy by more than +5% on the four datasets compared to TA-FedAvg. In particular, CSAFL improves absolute test accuracy by +34.4% on non-IID FEMNIST compared to TA-FedAvg.
Federated Learning (FL) is an emerging decentralized learning framework through which multiple clients can collaboratively train a learning model. However, a major obstacle that impedes the wide deployment of FL lies in massive communication traffic.
To train high dimensional machine learning models (such as CNN models), heavy communication traffic can be incurred by exchanging model updates via the Internet between clients and the parameter server (PS), implying that the network resource can be easily exhausted. Compressing model updates is an effective way to reduce the traffic amount. However, a flexible unbiased compression algorithm applicable for both uplink and downlink compression in FL is still absent from existing works. In this work, we devise the Model Update Compression by Soft Clustering (MUCSC) algorithm to compress model updates transmitted between clients and the PS. In MUCSC, it is only necessary to transmit cluster centroids and the cluster ID of each model update. Moreover, we prove that: 1) The compressed model updates are unbiased estimation of their original values so that the convergence rate by transmitting compressed model updates is unchanged; 2) MUCSC can guarantee that the influence of the compression error on the model accuracy is minimized. Then, we further propose the boosted MUCSC (B-MUCSC) algorithm, a biased compression algorithm that can achieve an extremely high compression rate by grouping insignificant model updates into a super cluster. B-MUCSC is suitable for scenarios with very scarce network resource. Ultimately, we conduct extensive experiments with the CIFAR-10 and FEMNIST datasets to demonstrate that our algorithms can not only substantially reduce the volume of communication traffic in FL, but also improve the training efficiency in practical networks.
Federated Learning (FL) enables the multiple participating devices to collaboratively contribute to a global neural network model while keeping the training data locally. Unlike the centralized training setting, the non-IID, imbalanced (statistical h
eterogeneity) and distribution shifted training data of FL is distributed in the federated network, which will increase the divergences between the local models and the global model, further degrading performance. In this paper, we propose a flexible clustered federated learning (CFL) framework named FlexCFL, in which we 1) group the training of clients based on the similarities between the clients optimization directions for lower training divergence; 2) implement an efficient newcomer device cold start mechanism for framework scalability and practicality; 3) flexibly migrate clients to meet the challenge of client-level data distribution shift. FlexCFL can achieve improvements by dividing joint optimization into groups of sub-optimization and can strike a balance between accuracy and communication efficiency in the distribution shift environment. The convergence and complexity are analyzed to demonstrate the efficiency of FlexCFL. We also evaluate FlexCFL on several open datasets and made comparisons with related CFL frameworks. The results show that FlexCFL can significantly improve absolute test accuracy by +10.6% on FEMNIST compared to FedAvg, +3.5% on FashionMNIST compared to FedProx, +8.4% on MNIST compared to FeSEM. The experiment results show that FlexCFL is also communication efficient in the distribution shift environment.
Personalized federated learning (FL) aims to train model(s) that can perform well for individual clients that are highly data and system heterogeneous. Most work in personalized FL, however, assumes using the same model architecture at all clients an
d increases the communication cost by sending/receiving models. This may not be feasible for realistic scenarios of FL. In practice, clients have highly heterogeneous system-capabilities and limited communication resources. In our work, we propose a personalized FL framework, PerFed-CKT, where clients can use heterogeneous model architectures and do not directly communicate their model parameters. PerFed-CKT uses clustered co-distillation, where clients use logits to transfer their knowledge to other clients that have similar data-distributions. We theoretically show the convergence and generalization properties of PerFed-CKT and empirically show that PerFed-CKT achieves high test accuracy with several orders of magnitude lower communication cost compared to the state-of-the-art personalized FL schemes.
